get raw UTF8 data out of JSON.stringify?

[Egor Egorov]

Hi!

I need to get raw UTF-8 data out of JSON.stringify, without the \uXXXX
escaped sequences. How do I do that?

var sys = require('sys');
var struct = ['вася'];
var json_string = JSON.stringify(struct);
sys.debug(json_string);

It returns "DEBUG: ["\u0432\u0430\u0441\u044f"]" and I want "DEBUG:
["вася"]".

You can do this after stringification using string 

json_string.replace(/\\u\d\d\d\d/g, function(a)

{

  // here convert sequence to correspond character.

});

You could do something like:

...
sys.debug(unescape(json_string.replace(/\\u/g, '%u'));

if you writing to http response:

res.write(data, "utf8");

or look at this:
